    GSkill + I875P.. any good?

    I recently bought some PQI TCCD memory (2x256mb), the highest I'm able to run stable on my 2.4c with IC7-Max3 is 275MHz 1:1 with 2.5-4-3-7 timings. From what I've read the GSkill memory can do 290mhz+ with 2.5-3-3-7 timings. But all the OC reports I've seen have been on AMD systems. Does anyone running an I875P setup run GSKill? If so what are your results? Thinking of trying the 2.5-3-3-7 DDR550 GSkill memory that excaliberpc is selling.

    I have the PC4400 2.5-3-3-7 GSkill which I bought from excaliber. On my P4C800 with a 2.4c I was only able to reach 275MHz 1:1 at 2.5-3-4-7 for a very unstable screenshot. TCCD seems to absolutely HATE the 875P chipset. I'm switching to an A64 setup because of how awesome the stuff clocks on the NF3.

    Here are my results: http://xtremesystems.org/forums/show...627#post570627

    Sadly BH-5 still seems to be the socket 478 king. TCCD just can't jiggle in the canterwood.

    On my TCCD the highest I was able to get stable was around 260MHz 2.5-3-3, not sure about Gogeta. The reason why I got this stuff is because I was looking forward to running 275+ at those timings, guess I'll have to wait for my A64 setup to do it.

    I tried 4 pairs 512mb x 2pcs TCCD chips, none of them can't do 286fsb at cl2.5-4-3-5.
    I think only 256x2pcs can do that because it use 1 bank only. 256mbx2pcs always o/c better than 512mbx2pcs.

    You got wrong...

    256mbx2 are still used two banks for dual channel...just as my first memtest86+ torture of my pics..

    yeah, opp had pretty much the same results with his gskill on an 875 board iirc

    tccd is not really running that great on 875... :/

    all seems to crap out around 275mhz 2.5-3-3 or even only 2.5-3-4

    All my runiing Pics are true just even with the old version...that could be just as one fact of the GS TCCD Stuffs...

    But i think OPP's comments were not the Guard here..!!

    in my opinion , just forget BH-5...even BH-5 @ 0313 week...

    Under normal Volt of RAM (2.5v-2.85v , Acceptable ) BH-5 got no far freq...cos all high freq shows were based on high voltage of Dimm...

    i do not agree the above method is the right way to go...

    i thought the OC arts should be away from high electric effort...as well as from EMI...

    Gamer,
    Is that with the 1019beta or 1018 BIOS? Nice 3.0c you have there.

    your just scared of high voltages

    overclocking without overvolting is like overclocking with stock cooling. sure, it gets you more speed, but not very much.

    some harware needs more volts than others, but seriously, who cares?
    is ddr2 better because it needs less volts? NO! lol

    We don't trust sandra anymore ? Or bugs in sandra ?

    you got right now!...

    dual channels can not be not reported by Sandra...btw Only the very prg memtest86+ can accurately recognize them...

    Were your words by your experience?...

    i say by my experience : (i am just an user of some brand of TCCD)

    DDR400 Stage :

    TCCD @ 2.5v overcome BH-5 easily even 3:2 configs...





    http://myweb.hinet.net/home4/jamesfu...00p95@2.5v.jpg

    DDR480 Stage :

    TCCD @ 2.5v overcomes BH-5 , too...





    http://myweb.hinet.net/home4/jamesfu...80p95@2.5v.jpg

    DDR580 Stage :

    TCCD broke out the BH-5's fear just @ 2.5v...







    http://myweb.hinet.net/home4/jamesfu...80p95@2.5v.jpg

    The above links were not showed out just because of lack of the fxxx CPUZ checksums that, old pics too, we did not care at all in my ocing surroundings...
